Eris, formal designation 136199 Eris, is the most massive known dwarf planet in the Solar System and the ninth most massive body known to orbit the Sun directly. It is estimated to be approximately 2300–2400 km in diameter,[14] and 27% more massive than Pluto or about 0.27% of the Earth's mass.[9][15] Eris was first identified in January 2005 by a Palomar Observatory-based team led by Mike Brown, and its identity verified later that year. It is a trans-Neptunian object (TNO) native to a region of space beyond the Kuiper belt known as the scattered disc. Eris has one moon, Dysnomia. As of 2010, its distance from the Sun is 96.6 AU,[12] roughly three times that of Pluto. With the exception of some comets the pair are currently the most distant known natural objects in the Solar System.[2][h]
